The europeans used Social Darwinism to justify their increase in emprie building with the justification that all creatures have and will still continue to evolve, and as such, there needed to be new accomodations met.
Partly through misinterpretation, and partly by committing the naturalistic fallacy (arguing that a description of way things are is a directive for the way things ought to be), some people were able to convince themselves that because the West had the more economically and technologically successful culture, we were destined to rule all.

In the 1800�s, Social Darwinists took Darwin�s theory of natural selection and used it to justify imperialism by believing the most ñsocially fitî white races had the divine right to dominate the ñlesser racesî. This belief allowed colonialists to believe that it was right that they should seize and enjoy riches while the inferior races languished in poverty.
The Neo-Darwinian theory includes knowledge of Mendelian and modern molecular genetics. It is, in essence, still the same theory, but refined, expanded to include new understanding.

Manifest destiny and social Darwinism were used to justify horrible actions toward minority peoples during the 1800s. Manifest destiny was the idea that the US should expand westward, and was used to steal Native American lands. Social Darwinism was the idea that the lighter skinned people were, the better they were. It was used to justify institutional racism.
Social Darwinism is a idea that is similar to survival of the fittest. They used this idea to and divide preexisting areas or territories.
Europeans used Social Darwinism to justify their imperialistic expansion by believing that they were more "fit" and advanced than other cultures. This idea was used to legitimize their colonization and exploitation of other peoples, claiming it was their right as the superior race to rule over others. Social Darwinism also helped Europeans rationalize the concept of "survival of the fittest" in the context of international competition and conflict.

social Darwinism
Social Darwinism was used to justify prejudice against minorities by suggesting that certain races or groups were inherently inferior and thus destined to be eliminated or oppressed in the natural order of society. This belief was used to justify discriminatory practices and policies that marginalized and excluded these minority groups based on the false idea of biological superiority.
People used social Darwinism to justify the idea of racial superiority, claiming that certain races were inherently more fit and superior than others. This led to discrimination, segregation, and injustice based on perceived racial differences.
Social Darwinism used the concept of "survival of the fittest" to justify racial superiority, arguing that certain races were more evolved and therefore more fit to dominate others. This led to the resurgence of beliefs in the superiority of the Anglo-Saxon race, both domestically and internationally, as a way to justify colonial expansion and reinforce existing power structures.
To justify the expansion to the detriment of the native Americans.
